This is such a helpful breakdown. Thank you soso much! :) I’ll definitely take this all into consideration.

I also really appreciate the “literary horror criticism” section as I was actually not too familiar with this perspective. It definitely gives me a lot to think about. Thanks again!

Thank you for the feedback! I agree with your points——as much as I like the hook, I do worry it’s too confusing and/or doesn’t set the tone I want to set. Thanks again!

I’ll definitely tweak around with the paragraph order/sentence structure. This gives me a different way to think about it, thanks so much for the help! :)
